I have an idea why talk of conspiracy theories were banned. It is because people were making themselves look so foolish with all their wild 'theories' on 9/11, landing on the moon, the U.S.'s 'grab for oil' etc. the Mods must have thought all this was making this board look like a bunch of kooks. It was almost like a mercy killing. I do wish the Mods had let all that go, though. I always got a good laugh out of them. I especially like the 'controlled demolition' 9/11 one. Or how the planes were flown by remote. Priceless.
